Re: ERROR CLXSIDF1, details: [xxxxxxx] error: XSIDiff error, details: --

You are missing the backup prog in the remote command. The error is stating that the [b]--source=stdin[/b] command does not exist, which lets you know you are running some remote command which is

--source=stdin

Instead of

/path/to/xsidiff --source=stdin
